Microsoft to hold all day press event on October 11th

We all know Windows Phone 7 is just around the corner. Microsoft promised it would be released “in time for the holidays”. It looks as though they are going to keep true to that promise and give the official launch date, prices, and vendors on October 11th. Engadget received an invitation to a Microsoft press event in London on October 11th, thus the speculation of a Phone 7 announcement. The event runs from 2:00 PM to 5:30PM. This, much like many other press events, will probably be show and tell with some hands on and play time to follow. We will be keeping an eye out for any new news and surprises to come out of the event. Yes Microsoft you can blow everyone’s mind by saying copy/paste and multi-tasking will be available at launch.
